Synopsis "Hacking Through Time: From Tinkerers to Enemies of the State (and sometimes, State-Sponsored) (in English)"
The word "hacker" has matured through time within the Internet universe. The word actually predates the Internet.However, even though maturity implies change, it is not always an improvement.Three decades ago, it meant "curious", "tinkerer", and nowadays it mostly means "criminal", which is clearly not better.Written for techies and non-techies alike, this book is a journey through the origin of the word "hacker", and the way in which its meaning has changed since and throughout last century, with first-person examples, thoughts, and a focus on what can, and will (or not) happen next.
